Warlord Games are bringing the British up against the Germans again in Bolt Action with two new army bundles which will help you play out the battles of 1939 and 1940.

We start off with the British Expeditionary Force which is set up to represent the soldiers that first pushed hard into France against the Germans only to be beaten back during the early period of the war.

You could use these soldiers to represent the fighting retreat by the Allies as they pulled back to Dunkirk for example.

I’ll be playing the French in the Battle of France – just painting up my forces now; while they may have struggled to cope on the strategic level, on the Bolt Action table they can overcome those obstacles and prove to be a fearsome opponent.

It’s good to see these forces available though that provide everything you need to get started.
